A fascinating and broody moody sketch of an origami crow - art on art...beautifully rendered, although I'm not too crazy about the added eye treatment. She's ominous enough without the electrical looking crackles issuing. Sometimes, less is 'more' or 'best', as in haiku and other poetry, also in drawing - the art of taking away excess until only the essential remains. Something I need to remember for myself.

The usually hateful crow— How lovely on the morn of snow!
